- 0:27Speaker 2: I can't I can't do more than seven days without you, Jay,
- 0:29Speaker 2: It's been too tough.
- 0:31Speaker 1: That's really sickly sweet. I think it's weird, isn't it,
- 0:34Speaker 1: because like you wait so long in the NFL because
- 0:37Speaker 1: the season is relatively short, isn't it?
- 0:39Speaker 3: You know?
- 0:40Speaker 1: But it feels like it's come around quite quickly, and
- 0:43Speaker 1: now I almost feel like I'm so ready for it.
- 0:45Speaker 1: But equally I'm absolutely not ready for it, you know,
- 0:48Speaker 1: because we are now days away. We are days away
- 0:50Speaker 1: from the first game of the season in the NFL
- 0:52Speaker 1: and the first game of the season for the Jacksonville
- 0:54Speaker 1: Janguars as well. How you're feeling about it, You're feeling excited.
- 0:57Speaker 2: I am excited. I was the other day. I was
- 0:59Speaker 2: just thinking like it feels so quick since February. But
- 1:04Speaker 2: then when I think back to February, that seems so
- 1:06Speaker 2: long ago. It's a constant. What's the word dichotomy?
- 1:10Speaker 1: Yeah, fancy words.
- 1:13Speaker 2: Since I've been reading the dictionary since February, I'm currently
- 1:16Speaker 2: on d It's great. I know I'm not ready at all,
- 1:21Speaker 2: and I know that come Sunday it'll be oh, we've
- 1:24Speaker 2: actually started.
- 1:25Speaker 1: Well, i'll tell you somebody that is absolutely ready, and
- 1:27Speaker 1: he's going to be on the show today. Someone who's
- 1:29Speaker 1: playing there a hundredth game this weekend, Evan Ingram is
- 1:35Speaker 1: going to be on the show, which is extremely exciting,
- 1:37Speaker 1: isn't it. And we're going to be talking about the
- 1:39Speaker 1: first game of the season against the Miami Dolphins. Of course.
- 1:42Speaker 1: A Welshman joining the Jacksonville Jaguars, of course we need
- 1:46Speaker 1: to mention that and another fan it gives us the
- 1:48Speaker 1: big question, Key, big show, big show.
- 1:53Speaker 2: Big show, mate, Well, what other way would they be
- 1:55Speaker 2: to start the season right?
- 1:56Speaker 1: Yeah? And speaking of big shows as well, this isn't
- 1:59Speaker 1: the only big show. If you're a Jacksonville Jaguars fan
- 2:02Speaker 1: in the UK, look at me, I'm a professional. What's
- 2:07Speaker 1: going on? Key, it's the return of something else.
- 2:10Speaker 2: It's the return of Jaguars Weekly UK on sky Sports
- 2:14Speaker 2: NFL every Wednesday during the regular season at nine pm,
- 2:17Speaker 2: hosted by Rhyese Parkinson. Every week we'll do highlights, all
- 2:21Speaker 2: the analysis you could possibly want. We regularly have JP Shadrick,
- 2:26Speaker 2: Tony Basselli on the show, exclusive interviews with players, coaches,
- 2:31Speaker 2: staff members, behind the scenes stuff, all the content between
- 2:35Speaker 2: us and the show, all the content you could possibly want.
- 2:38Speaker 2: It's all there for the taking every week SkySports NFL Wednesday.
- 2:42Speaker 1: Nine's very exciting though, and now you know it really
- 2:44Speaker 1: kicks off the start of the season. I'm feeling excited.
- 2:47Speaker 1: I have got multiple fantasy leagues key. Now. The problem
- 2:51Speaker 1: is producer Simon was not happy when he heard about this.
- 2:53Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever heard such anger in his voice.
- 2:55Speaker 1: To be honest with us, there was too many I
- 2:58Speaker 1: want to put that out there, and I know that
- 3:00Speaker 1: it's too many fantasy leagues. And I think I've got
- 3:02Speaker 1: seven fantasy leagues, which is absurd now I usually have
- 3:06Speaker 1: like two, two, potentially three. But I just kept getting
- 3:10Speaker 1: invited to like different leagues, you know what I mean.
- 3:12Speaker 1: And then I was just like, yeah, all right, I'll
- 3:13Speaker 1: just do it. That's fine. But now it's just it's
- 3:17Speaker 1: just too much.
- 3:18Speaker 2: How you do it?
- 3:19Speaker 3: Man?
- 3:19Speaker 2: Like, So I was in two and I was like,
- 3:22Speaker 2: that's too many. And then I was in one, and
- 3:24Speaker 2: I was in that one for a long time. And
- 3:26Speaker 2: I'm trying to write the show on a Sunday night
- 3:28Speaker 2: while I'm watching the Jags game, and then I've got
- 3:31Speaker 2: Fantasy going off at the same time. It's just like,
- 3:33Speaker 2: I love Fantasy, It's fantastic, but it's just too much
- 3:37Speaker 2: for me. I could either write a really good show
- 3:39Speaker 2: or do Fantasy. I had to make a choice.
- 3:42Speaker 1: Well, there's a couple of Jags actually that I really
- 3:44Speaker 1: wanted to make sure were in my team.
- 3:46Speaker 3: Have you gone with?
- 3:47Speaker 1: I've gone with because I knew that he would be
- 3:50Speaker 1: in the later rounds especially, and I've just got this
- 3:53Speaker 1: feeling that there might be a good relationship with Trevor
- 3:57Speaker 1: Lawrence and Brian Thomas Jr. I think that that might
- 4:01Speaker 1: be something to you know, keep an eye on, essentially.
- 4:05Speaker 1: So I've put him. I'm not starting him straight away
- 4:07Speaker 1: because I want to see how how he gets on
- 4:09Speaker 1: in the first few games. Because you know what it's like,
- 4:11Speaker 1: you know, rookie rookie wide receiver. It might be a
- 4:14Speaker 1: few games until they you know, bed him in I suppose.
- 4:17Speaker 1: But they take him in the first round, take him
- 4:19Speaker 1: twenty third pick in the draft, They're going to want
- 4:22Speaker 1: to play him fairly quickly. And I got a fit
- 4:24Speaker 1: he could be a league winner. He could be a
- 4:26Speaker 1: league winner.
- 4:26Speaker 2: Speaking too soon, J, But what what's your feeling having
- 4:30Speaker 2: seen BTJ in the preseason, what are your feelings about
- 4:33Speaker 2: him so far?
- 4:34Speaker 1: Well? I just think that when you've got a quarterback
- 4:36Speaker 1: like Trevor Lawrence who is known for wanting to air
- 4:39Speaker 1: out the ball. Obviously Calvin Ridley's not there anymore. I
- 4:42Speaker 1: know that Gabe Davis is there, But when you've got
- 4:44Speaker 1: somebody who in college, he was a flyer in college
- 4:48Speaker 1: for LSU, you know what I mean, Like you know,
- 4:50Speaker 1: he was a flyer. So whilst I'm sure that they're
- 4:52Speaker 1: going to be looking at getting him to do different
- 4:54Speaker 1: things within the Jags offense, I feel like from purely
- 4:58Speaker 1: from a fantasy perspective, you could be looking at some
- 5:02Speaker 1: long touchdowns for Brian Thomas Street and that's why I
- 5:05Speaker 1: wanted to get him in there. And then the other
- 5:07Speaker 1: person as well, is is the person we've got on
- 5:10Speaker 1: the show today. Evan Ingram, someone here is for the
- 5:12Speaker 1: last couple of years, been consistent, consistent at catching the ball,
- 5:16Speaker 1: consistent at you know, the stupid number of receptions. We
- 5:21Speaker 1: do have a stat here.
- 5:22Speaker 2: Two hundred and fourteen last season.
- 5:24Speaker 1: It is a ridiculous number. And I still feel like
- 5:28Speaker 1: he gets slept tom when it comes to fantasy anyway.
- 5:31Speaker 1: So I make sure that you know at least in
- 5:33Speaker 1: at least in one of my leagues, I had each
- 5:35Speaker 1: of those because I think that those are two in
- 5:39Speaker 1: what is going to be I think an exciting offense
- 5:42Speaker 1: to watch. Those are two people I think to keep
- 5:44Speaker 1: an eye on. I mean I say this as if
- 5:46Speaker 1: you know people that are going to be listening to
- 5:48Speaker 1: this haven't done their fantasy draft yet. I'm excited for
- 5:50Speaker 1: the whole season. I'm excited for everything everything NFL returning,
- 5:54Speaker 1: especially to the UK. We'll listen to Evan in a moment,
- 5:57Speaker 1: but it's not that far, not that long away until
- 5:59Speaker 1: those gay in the UK. I think that you kind
- 6:01Speaker 1: of because again the season is so short, it kind
- 6:03Speaker 1: of feels like, well it's a quarter of the way
- 6:05Speaker 1: through the season, but that in terms of weeks is
- 6:07Speaker 1: what we're looking at a month away. Key, and I
- 6:09Speaker 1: know that this is what's going to happen over the
- 6:10Speaker 1: next few weeks, because we are just going to keep
- 6:12Speaker 1: digging it up. But quite rightly, I think this is
- 6:14Speaker 1: the start of the NFL season and it's only like
- 6:17Speaker 1: a month until we get to see the Jags in person.
- 6:19Speaker 2: Will creep up on us so quick, Jay, and it's
- 6:22Speaker 2: been like, oh no, we've got time. It's you know,
- 6:25Speaker 2: it's three, four or five weeks away, and then before
- 6:29Speaker 2: we know it, we'll be Oh, man, we need to
- 6:31Speaker 2: be recording a podcast in London ready for the games
- 6:34Speaker 2: because it's happening this week.
- 6:36Speaker 3: Dude.
- 6:36Speaker 2: I am so excited for those back to back games
- 6:38Speaker 2: this season.
- 6:39Speaker 3: Man.
- 6:39Speaker 1: I feel like we should do like a this is
- 6:41Speaker 1: what you might have missed if this is your first
- 6:43Speaker 1: time listening to Till Talk. By the way, I'm not
- 6:45Speaker 1: talking about you know what you might have missed in
- 6:47Speaker 1: Key's life over the last.
- 6:48Speaker 2: Few weeks, recapping my personal life.
- 6:52Speaker 1: No, what you might have missed over the last few weeks.
- 6:53Speaker 1: By the way, if you are listening to till Talk,
- 6:55Speaker 1: maybe you're listening on your podcast. You know, wherever you
- 6:57Speaker 1: get podcasts, you can actually watch us on YouTube as well. Equally,
- 7:00Speaker 1: if you're on YouTube, you can listen to us where
- 7:02Speaker 1: you get your podcasts as well. We let's do it back, Well,
- 7:06Speaker 1: this is what you might have missed, shall we key
- 7:08Speaker 1: over the last few weeks ahead of the Jags season,
- 7:11Speaker 1: ahead of that first game against the Miami Delphins in
- 7:13Speaker 1: a few days time. Obviously, if you're a Jags fan,
- 7:17Speaker 1: you remember what happened at the tail end of last
- 7:19Speaker 1: season with trying to like, okay, we don't talk about
- 7:23Speaker 1: it is something that doesn't happen. Number one seed in
- 7:25Speaker 1: the in the AFC didn't turn out so well in
- 7:28Speaker 1: the tail end of the season. But we are looking
- 7:29Speaker 1: past that. We are moving forward. We're feeling confident ahead
- 7:33Speaker 1: of the new season. Receiver room looks different, doesn't it key.
- 7:36Speaker 2: Much stronger I think than it has been for a while.
- 7:40Speaker 2: And yeah, at first the loss of Calvin Ridley hit hard,
- 7:44Speaker 2: but actually I think we've made improvements since he went
- 7:48Speaker 2: to the Titans. I actually think it's much stronger than
- 7:50Speaker 2: it was this time last year. That's really exciting. I
- 7:53Speaker 2: think what particularly Brian Thomas Junior and gave Davis spring
- 7:57Speaker 2: to the table is gonna yeah, really add some debt.
- 8:00Speaker 1: People are not able to do. Not Jags fans overlook him,
- 8:03Speaker 1: but I think generally people overlook Christian Kirk as well.
- 8:05Speaker 1: To be fair, So you've got three three.
- 8:07Speaker 2: Players like similar to what you said about Evan solid, solid,
- 8:12Speaker 2: consistent performer. People look past him, but absolute foundation of
- 8:17Speaker 2: that receiving core man.
- 8:19Speaker 1: I mean, I was super excited when Ryan Nielsen became
- 8:21Speaker 1: a defensive coordinator of course a few months ago. Looks
- 8:24Speaker 1: like he's going to be changing how the defense works.
- 8:27Speaker 1: The addition of Eric Armstead as well, I think that's
- 8:31Speaker 1: a massive addition to the defensive unit.
- 8:33Speaker 3: Key.
- 8:34Speaker 2: Do you know what one thing that coach Nielsen said
- 8:36Speaker 2: that I really really liked is someone at Oppressor said
- 8:39Speaker 2: to him, so, I mean, presumably you just let Josh
- 8:43Speaker 2: Allen do what he does. Coach Nielsen was like, no,
- 8:47Speaker 2: even Josh Allen's Allen has improvements to make. We look
- 8:50Speaker 2: at every single individual, We look at the team as
- 8:52Speaker 2: a whole, but then every single individual has things that
- 8:56Speaker 2: they need to improve on and work on. And I
- 8:58Speaker 2: was like, yeah, I like that.
- 8:59Speaker 1: That's sweet. Want to hear, isn't it?
- 9:00Speaker 2: Yeah, Josh Heins Allen needs to be told, is my point.
- 9:03Speaker 1: It needs to be telling. You can tell him the
- 9:04Speaker 1: key to tell him. No, you're right, you can't overlook
- 9:08Speaker 1: the security for the Jacksonville Jaguars in terms of players
- 9:12Speaker 1: as well over the next few years. I mean you
- 9:14Speaker 1: mentioned Josh Heines Allen, they're signing a new contract massive.
- 9:18Speaker 1: In fact, you secured those those big pieces on both
- 9:22Speaker 1: sides of the ball in Trevor Lawrence the quarterback of course,
- 9:25Speaker 1: the franchise QB for the Jags, Josh Heines Allen, Tyson
- 9:29Speaker 1: Campbell as well, securing what is going to be those
- 9:33Speaker 1: big pieces hopefully longer than just the next few years
- 9:37Speaker 1: as well, because this is an investment for you know,
- 9:40Speaker 1: you hope, and this isn't going to be their last
- 9:42Speaker 1: contract either.
- 9:44Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think part of that. So, yes, you've
- 9:46Speaker 2: got those contracts. There's also stadium, a brand new facility,
- 9:51Speaker 2: and you think, whoa Shad Khan is investing so much
- 9:56Speaker 2: money into this team and he's us for one thing.
- 10:00Speaker 2: He's up for one thing. Just go and win.
- 10:04Speaker 1: Just just just go and win for me, just just
- 10:07Speaker 1: I'll give you this. Just go and win a Super
- 10:09Speaker 1: Bowl for US. So it's been a big off season. Actually,
- 10:12Speaker 1: I don't think it can be understated how big an
- 10:15Speaker 1: off season it is. And without sounding like a homer
- 10:18Speaker 1: or anything like that, I still feel like people are
- 10:20Speaker 1: sleeping on the Jags. I know it's a tough division.
- 10:23Speaker 1: You know it is going to be a tough division
- 10:26Speaker 1: in the AFC sounds, but I still feel like people
- 10:28Speaker 1: are sleeping on the Jags. I'm massive. I love this,
- 10:30Speaker 1: by the way. I love I went on an NFL
- 10:32Speaker 1: dot com the other day and I was having a
- 10:34Speaker 1: look at who people think might win the Super Bowl.
- 10:38Speaker 1: One person said, the Jacksonville Jags. Do you want to
- 10:40Speaker 1: guess who it is that wasn't me? Wasn't me? Maurice
- 10:44Speaker 1: Jones Drew.
- 10:46Speaker 2: To be fair, Maurice does that every year, every single year.
- 10:51Speaker 2: The Rags are bless him.
- 10:53Speaker 1: I love it regardless. Okay, look, let's get into it,
- 10:55Speaker 1: shall we. He's playing his one hundredth game this weekend
- 10:58Speaker 1: against the Miami Dolph and he also celebrated another big
- 11:03Speaker 1: day as well. Let's speak to the Jacksonville Jaguars tight
- 11:06Speaker 1: end edit Ingram. It's the second of September twenty twenty four.
- 11:11Speaker 1: Happy birthday, man, appreciate it.
- 11:12Speaker 3: Man thirty thirty Man.
- 11:14Speaker 1: Yeah, thirty years old. I mean, you got to tell
- 11:17Speaker 1: me how you're celebrating.
- 11:18Speaker 4: I actually had a family down this weekend. We had
- 11:21Speaker 4: a few days off, so I had some family and
- 11:23Speaker 4: friends in town, had a nice beach day and play some.
- 11:25Speaker 3: Golf and then tonight I'll do dinner with the waves.
- 11:28Speaker 1: So oh no, that sounds relaxed. Are you someone that
- 11:31Speaker 1: has like big parties.
- 11:33Speaker 3: Back in the day. Yeah, but I like to just
- 11:36Speaker 3: kind of chill.
- 11:37Speaker 1: Now we'll go over an excellent time. I hope you
- 11:40Speaker 1: have an excellent day.
- 11:41Speaker 4: Man.
- 11:41Speaker 1: Look, we'll talk about the season with literally just days away.
- 11:43Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure the birthday aside, this is all
- 11:46Speaker 1: you're thinking about right now. I mean, just give it
- 11:48Speaker 1: to me straight. How are you feeling ahead of the season?
- 11:51Speaker 4: Felt awesome. I had a really really great camp. We
- 11:55Speaker 4: you know, came in every single day and put a
- 11:57Speaker 4: lot of work in, had a lot of dog days,
- 11:59Speaker 4: and definitely grew a lot as a team.
- 12:02Speaker 3: During training camp.
- 12:03Speaker 4: And I think you know, everybody coming in the building
- 12:06Speaker 4: today definitely had some extra juice to them. Definitely it
- 12:09Speaker 4: being game week, kind of getting through all the preseason
- 12:12Speaker 4: games and now I really count, so definitely feel great.
- 12:15Speaker 4: I felt really confident going in this week and we're
- 12:17Speaker 4: excited to play.
- 12:19Speaker 1: You get a sense that there's you know, some extra
- 12:21Speaker 1: enthusiasm you know in the squad right now.
- 12:23Speaker 3: Oh yeah, for sure.
- 12:24Speaker 4: I mean preseason is fun obviously, you know, used to
- 12:27Speaker 4: getting out there playing ball, but now now it gets real,
- 12:30Speaker 4: it gets real, it means a lot more. So definitely
- 12:33Speaker 4: some more pep in our stuff, for sure.
- 12:34Speaker 1: I read some stuff about you the last few days
- 12:36Speaker 1: actually about your preparation is just second to none. How
- 12:40Speaker 1: it's just so detailed. I mean, Press Taylor's called you
- 12:42Speaker 1: the ideal professional. Talk to me about like how this offseason,
- 12:47Speaker 1: how this preseason? You know, have you changed anything, if
- 12:50Speaker 1: you've done anything different this time around?
- 12:53Speaker 4: Yes, And though I you know, I kind of always
- 12:56Speaker 4: uh definitely love to push myself, put the boundaries, you know,
- 13:02Speaker 4: creating adversity for myself, making things, you know, creating challenges
- 13:06Speaker 4: to overcome within my routine or whether there's a practice
- 13:09Speaker 4: or something. So definitely always, you know, love to put
- 13:12Speaker 4: the work in, love to trying to find new things
- 13:15Speaker 4: to improve, and you know that that always is kind
- 13:18Speaker 4: of evolving. You know, one last year it was one thing,
- 13:21Speaker 4: now this year is another thing. So definitely just it's
- 13:24Speaker 4: really just pushing myself.
- 13:25Speaker 3: And you know, I've I've.
- 13:27Speaker 4: Found the more work put in, the better the results become. Uh,
- 13:31Speaker 4: And you know that's just kind of something I you know,
- 13:33Speaker 4: I live by and I believe, and not only for myself,
- 13:37Speaker 4: definitely trying to push my teammates with that attitude as well,
- 13:40Speaker 4: and you know, get them pushing themselves and us kind
- 13:43Speaker 4: of become you know, us making that our identity. So definitely, uh,
- 13:48Speaker 4: just a part of where I am. It's something you know,
- 13:50Speaker 4: I've I've had a lot of uh, you know, success
- 13:53Speaker 4: and some low points in my career, and you know
- 13:54Speaker 4: a lot of those things, I'm motive to what I
- 13:56Speaker 4: am today and every day I try to just get
- 13:59Speaker 4: better at something, push myself a little more than the
- 14:01Speaker 4: day before.
- 14:02Speaker 1: I mean, speaking to teammates, how do you feel about
- 14:05Speaker 1: the receivers that are going to be lined up next year?
- 14:08Speaker 1: Come game day?
- 14:09Speaker 4: I mean, I have the utmost confidence in our our
- 14:13Speaker 4: squad right now. I can't wait to see everybody ball
- 14:17Speaker 4: out and us kind of put our product on the field,
- 14:20Speaker 4: our identity that we've been working towards you know, like
- 14:24Speaker 4: I said, this week is is a lot of bullets.
- 14:26Speaker 4: So I'm definitely excited, you know, to get on the
- 14:28Speaker 4: field those guys, and our chemistry is really well right now,
- 14:32Speaker 4: Trevor leading away and getting all of us going, and
- 14:35Speaker 4: we're all on the same page and we just all
- 14:37Speaker 4: want to go out there and be great together and
- 14:39Speaker 4: we all want to see each other succeed as well.
- 14:41Speaker 4: So love the way our offense is working right now.
- 14:45Speaker 4: You know, we have a lot of weapons in our
- 14:47Speaker 4: skill position. Uh, but definitely excited, you know to see
- 14:50Speaker 4: your whole line go to work too. Those guys have
- 14:52Speaker 4: been flying around our camp handling business, so a lot
- 14:56Speaker 4: of our whole unit. Honestly, we have a lot of
- 14:58Speaker 4: great talent and you know that when we all stay healthy,
- 15:02Speaker 4: I think we can do some special things this year.
- 15:05Speaker 1: Okay, Miami Dolphins first game of the season. I know
- 15:08Speaker 1: you're all going to be up for it regardless, but
- 15:11Speaker 1: what's key for you in this game? Tough game to
- 15:13Speaker 1: start and obviously another Florida team too.
- 15:17Speaker 4: Yeah, I think a you know, a big thing this
- 15:19Speaker 4: week for us is you know, it's really all about us.
- 15:22Speaker 4: We want to play our brand of football, you know,
- 15:24Speaker 4: limit mistakes and take care of the football and score points.
- 15:28Speaker 3: That's that's the big thing for us this year.
- 15:31Speaker 4: Is I'm finishing drives, playing physical and scoring touchdowns.
- 15:35Speaker 3: Obviously, you know three points is good.
- 15:38Speaker 4: I'm here and there, but we want to finish drives
- 15:40Speaker 4: with six points, put our defense in a good position.
- 15:43Speaker 4: So offensively, definitely, it's all about us and he's willing
- 15:47Speaker 4: to play fast, physical spot points.
- 15:49Speaker 1: I'm going to talk to you in a second about
- 15:51Speaker 1: Wembley next month. It's not that far away, but I
- 15:54Speaker 1: want to know what's the goal for you personally, what's
- 15:56Speaker 1: the goal for you this season? Because spectacular two seasons
- 15:59Speaker 1: in a uniform.
- 16:00Speaker 3: I'd definitely like to keep my personal goals.
- 16:03Speaker 2: Okay, no hint, could we get a hint?
- 16:07Speaker 3: I think definitely. A goal I can tell you is
- 16:11Speaker 3: just leadership. Take a lot of pride in leadership this year.
- 16:13Speaker 4: And I mean, if I could just be a constant
- 16:16Speaker 4: force in the locker room, getting guys going every single day,
- 16:20Speaker 4: you know, holding holding each other accountable, creating that environment
- 16:24Speaker 4: for everybody to you know, love each other and push
- 16:26Speaker 4: each other, we can get to the end of the
- 16:27Speaker 4: season and guys can say Evan did well in that.
- 16:30Speaker 3: That'd be an accomplishment for me.
- 16:32Speaker 1: Yeah for sure. All right, we'll talk Wembley only a
- 16:35Speaker 1: month until you're in London for two games now. A
- 16:39Speaker 1: couple of seasons ago, you remember this touchdown Wembley Stadium
- 16:44Speaker 1: in the home of football, doing the Ronaldo celebration after
- 16:48Speaker 1: scoring a touchdown. I mean, of course the whole of
- 16:53Speaker 1: Wembley is going to absolutely love that. As I say,
- 16:54Speaker 1: it is the home of football. Have you got anything
- 16:56Speaker 1: in mind? Did you score a touchdown this time around?
- 16:59Speaker 3: And that? Honestly yes, I do.
- 17:01Speaker 4: Like I can't tell you that one either. I have
- 17:04Speaker 4: a really good one planned. I've done my research. I
- 17:08Speaker 4: definitely believe the fans will know exactly what this one
- 17:11Speaker 4: will be. So if you could just you know, talk
- 17:14Speaker 4: the press, talk the dog, just make sure they know
- 17:17Speaker 4: some players up for me to score that you'll see
- 17:19Speaker 4: it for sure.
- 17:20Speaker 1: Okay, you know that what's going to happen is the
- 17:22Speaker 1: next month. All I'm going to be thinking about is
- 17:24Speaker 1: is it going to be the celebration? Is it going
- 17:25Speaker 1: to be that celebration? Hopefully we'll find out. No. I've
- 17:29Speaker 1: noticed that when speaking to Americans, you know, when they
- 17:32Speaker 1: come over to the UK, they tend to do to
- 17:35Speaker 1: have one opinion about the UK, and that is the food.
- 17:40Speaker 1: They are not big on the food.
- 17:42Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm I wish I could speak a little bit
- 17:46Speaker 4: more highly about food. But yeah, I'm definitely on the
- 17:50Speaker 4: side of the food could be a little bit better.
- 17:53Speaker 1: Ross Mathis said he was going to bring over ranch dip,
- 17:55Speaker 1: anything you want to bring over with you.
- 17:58Speaker 4: Yeah, ranch would be one of them. I don't think
- 18:00Speaker 4: I've seen women pepper wings over there. I definitely a
- 18:04Speaker 4: US day, so I would definitely bring some women Prepper
- 18:07Speaker 4: season in my suitcase. And I do know there's a
- 18:10Speaker 4: lot of good Indian food spots out there. I just said,
- 18:14Speaker 4: we've had we have had some good Indian food out there.
- 18:17Speaker 4: But but yeah, I think hopefully this this year can
- 18:20Speaker 4: change my mind a little bit.
- 18:21Speaker 1: Okay, we'll put limon pepper wings, put some Indian food
- 18:24Speaker 1: on the menu for you.
- 18:24Speaker 3: Man.
- 18:25Speaker 1: So good to speak to you, Evan, Thank you so
- 18:27Speaker 1: much for having a chat with us. You know, we'll
- 18:29Speaker 1: see you in about a month's time. It's not too
- 18:31Speaker 1: long away, so we'll catch you then and have a
- 18:33Speaker 1: great season, have a great first week.
- 18:35Speaker 3: Appreciate it.
- 18:36Speaker 1: Thank you, Evan Ingram. The Jacksonville Jaguar was tight, and
- 18:39Speaker 1: they're celebrating his thirtieth birthday. I thought he might have
- 18:42Speaker 1: an all out party. No, just a quiet one. Just
- 18:44Speaker 1: a quiet one.
- 18:45Speaker 2: Key, far too professional.
- 18:48Speaker 1: I think that my favorite thing. And do you know what,
- 18:50Speaker 1: he's a really good speaker. I loved a lot of
- 18:53Speaker 1: the things he said, including how he wanted to really,
- 18:56Speaker 1: you know, be known as a leader in the Jags
- 18:59Speaker 1: locker room. I thought that's key. I think that's a
- 19:02Speaker 1: really big thing for somebody to say. But also the
- 19:05Speaker 1: fact that he has a celebration lined up if he
- 19:09Speaker 1: catches if he catches the touchdown this season at Wembley Stadium,
- 19:14Speaker 1: after he did the Cristiano Ronaldo celebration just a couple
- 19:17Speaker 1: of years ago. Now, I did have a couple of
- 19:19Speaker 1: ideas what it could possibly be, but I didn't want
- 19:22Speaker 1: to say anything. O case, I've got it right, Okay,
- 19:24Speaker 1: Now I don't think it's this one, but it'd be
- 19:25Speaker 1: amazing if it was Peter Crouch Robot circa two thousand
- 19:28Speaker 1: and six. I don't think it will be. How far
- 19:31Speaker 1: back do you think his references? That's what I'm saying.
- 19:34Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. I think of that. Do you
- 19:36Speaker 1: know what that would be? I would love that. I
- 19:39Speaker 1: would absolutely love that. This is the goal that Pele
- 19:41Speaker 1: scored in the nineteen seventy six shursh If you aren't
- 19:47Speaker 1: watching on YouTube, you can watch me do absolutely butcher
- 19:50Speaker 1: this celebration right now. I'm going to try it. Now.
- 19:53Speaker 1: You're not a big like soccer fan, are you key?
- 19:55Speaker 1: So let's see if I don't think you're going to guess?
- 19:58Speaker 1: Get who this is? Okay, I'm not going to stand up,
- 20:01Speaker 1: but I can just try and do it. I sat down, Okay.
- 20:03Speaker 2: Okay, Oh do you know what? They go over to
- 20:06Speaker 2: the corner flag and do it?
- 20:08Speaker 1: Who is it? I'll describe what I'm doing in a second.
- 20:10Speaker 1: I'm not going to get Okay, So I'm crossing crossing
- 20:13Speaker 1: my arms, aren't I Almost.
- 20:14Speaker 2: Like Eric Canton?
- 20:16Speaker 1: Eric, No, it's not that is Jude Bellingham.
- 20:19Speaker 2: Jude Bellingham the England him in the summer.
- 20:23Speaker 1: Not all of it good. It was good for England
- 20:26Speaker 1: in the Euros and he's obviously he plays for Real
- 20:28Speaker 1: Madrid in a very successful, very successful young man. And
- 20:31Speaker 1: I have a feeling that it could be that because
- 20:33Speaker 1: he said, and I quote, I've been doing my research.
- 20:36Speaker 1: So unless he's been going back to two thousand and
- 20:37Speaker 1: six and doing Peter Crouch's robot, maybe it's Jude Bellingen.
- 20:41Speaker 1: But I think it's much more likely. It's much more likely.
- 20:44Speaker 1: But I could be completely wrong. I could be completely wrong.
- 20:47Speaker 2: If he pulls out the robot, mate, Oh my goodness,
- 20:50Speaker 2: if he pulls I have so much respect for you
- 20:52Speaker 2: to begin with. Respect for you will increase so much
- 20:56Speaker 2: if he does not.
- 20:57Speaker 1: Look, we need to mention that the new man that
- 20:59Speaker 1: has joined the Jacksonville Jaguars a bit of a surprise.
- 21:01Speaker 1: I think it's fair to say as well, he's joining
- 21:03Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars practice squad. Former Welsh rugby player, former
- 21:09Speaker 1: British Lion obviously change sports this summer through the International
- 21:14Speaker 1: Pathway Program. Lewis Riezamit went to the Kansas City Chiefs
- 21:19Speaker 1: ends up on the Jacksonville Jaguars practice squad. I mean,
- 21:24Speaker 1: I found this really exciting, to be honest with you,
- 21:26Speaker 1: because I don't know if he's going to play this season.
- 21:29Speaker 1: I think that that's fair to say he's on the
- 21:31Speaker 1: practice squad. You don't know how these things go. But
- 21:35Speaker 1: it's exciting nonetheless to well A to see a representative
- 21:39Speaker 1: of the UK on the Jacksonville Jaguars. I think that's amazing.
- 21:42Speaker 1: But b it's undoubted that he's got a lot of
- 21:45Speaker 1: potential key, it's just whether or not he can transition
- 21:48Speaker 1: into American football.
- 21:50Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the ceiling is so high for him.
- 21:54Speaker 2: It's a lovely move. I think it's a really fun move.
- 21:57Speaker 2: I can see why because I think Doug p the
- 22:00Speaker 2: Son likes similar players to Andy Reid, so I can
- 22:04Speaker 2: see why that's happened. I think one thing that might
- 22:08Speaker 2: make a difference for Reese Sammitt is special teams. And
- 22:13Speaker 2: I think if he can knuckle down, like really commit
- 22:18Speaker 2: to learning the sport and like developing a wide skill set,
- 22:23Speaker 2: I think special teams could be absolutely huge for him.
- 22:27Speaker 2: And it was really interesting that the Chiefs had him
- 22:30Speaker 2: build as a running back, but when he came over
- 22:32Speaker 2: to the Jags build as a wide receiver and I thought, oh,
- 22:36Speaker 2: return specialist potentially, So let's see if coach Farwell is
- 22:40Speaker 2: going to be working with him to develop some skills there.
- 22:42Speaker 2: That's that's what I think could potentially be really interesting for.
- 22:45Speaker 1: Him, especially with the change in the kicking rules rules.
- 22:49Speaker 1: You know, he was he was used in the in
- 22:51Speaker 1: the preseason with the Chiefs on that a little bit,
- 22:54Speaker 1: but you know, not massively. They played him in the
- 22:57Speaker 1: running back they did. He did take a couple of
- 22:59Speaker 1: snow as from a wide receiver position as well. But
- 23:03Speaker 1: you know, for me, I always build him. I always
- 23:05Speaker 1: saw him as a potential slot receiver. Now obviously that
- 23:10Speaker 1: it involves a whole different set of challenges compared to
- 23:13Speaker 1: being a running back. You know, it's a different position.
- 23:15Speaker 1: He's used to catching a ball a certain way. He
- 23:18Speaker 1: has a route tree to learn, let alone, you know,
- 23:21Speaker 1: become polished as a receiver. Lots of challenges. But you
- 23:25Speaker 1: know what, for me, it's just exciting to see what
- 23:28Speaker 1: his journey can do. And it's really exciting as well
- 23:32Speaker 1: to know that he's committed, because how easy would it
- 23:35Speaker 1: have been to just be like, didn't get onto you know,
- 23:38Speaker 1: an active roster, let's just go back to rugby. Yeah, No,
- 23:42Speaker 1: he's committed to this.
- 23:43Speaker 2: The thing about catching the ball, right, I think, yeah,
- 23:47Speaker 2: he's as a rugby player here have been catching the
- 23:48Speaker 2: ball a certain way. One thing we know for sure
- 23:51Speaker 2: that he can do is hold a ball and run
- 23:54Speaker 2: really fast. Yeah, so that I think there's great potential there.
- 23:58Speaker 2: I think if he commits, who knows what the possibilities
- 24:01Speaker 2: are for him.
- 24:02Speaker 3: Man.
- 24:02Speaker 2: But it's exciting and it's it's fun.
- 24:05Speaker 1: Football is fun. I like football. Football is fun. Speaking
- 24:09Speaker 1: of fun football, hopefully we'll be saying that on Sunday. Anyway,
- 24:11Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins is the first game of the season. Not
- 24:14Speaker 1: gonna sugarcoat this is a I mean, first of all,
- 24:17Speaker 1: you know great that it's a you know, to get
- 24:20Speaker 1: two teams in Florida playing each other for the first
- 24:22Speaker 1: game of the season. It's fun, but also tough game.
- 24:26Speaker 1: I can't sugarcoat it. It's gonna be a tough game
- 24:29Speaker 1: in Miami. This is a speedy team, is surely the
- 24:35Speaker 1: fastest team in the NFL. I mean, obviously Tyreek Hill.
- 24:41Speaker 1: He's the main guy that you need to be able
- 24:43Speaker 1: to to try and stifle in some way, which is
- 24:48Speaker 1: gonna be gonna be tough. And that's not including even
- 24:52Speaker 1: a chain. You know what I think, is it Jalen Right?
- 24:55Speaker 1: I think I think it's Jalen Right. You know, their
- 24:56Speaker 1: new their new running running back. It's a it's gonna
- 24:59Speaker 1: be a fun team, and it's going to be it's
- 25:03Speaker 1: gonna be a fun watch. It's going to be a
- 25:05Speaker 1: tough watch. Is there something that you think is key.
- 25:08Speaker 2: Here Tyreek Hill and can Tyson Campbell make a difference?
- 25:14Speaker 2: I don't know the answer to that. I don't know
- 25:16Speaker 2: that many people can stop Tyreek Hill. I think Tyreek
- 25:19Speaker 2: Hill has a bad day when Tyreek Hill wants to
- 25:22Speaker 2: have a bad day, Like I think Tyreek Hill is
- 25:24Speaker 2: the only person that gets in the way of himself.
- 25:27Speaker 2: It's hard for anyone to stop him. We sat down
- 25:31Speaker 2: with Tyson Campbell in the off season and he seems
- 25:34Speaker 2: so confident, like he feels on top of his game.
- 25:37Speaker 2: He's going to have to be on Sunday.
- 25:38Speaker 3: Man.
- 25:39Speaker 1: He really is Tyreek Hill. He has been coming off
- 25:41Speaker 1: of an injury. I think it's gonna be all fine
- 25:43Speaker 1: for Week one. I have to mention that, you know,
- 25:46Speaker 1: former Jack Jalen Ramsey on the other side as well.
- 25:48Speaker 1: Tough game, but what a statement it would be for
- 25:52Speaker 1: the Jags to go on the road, go to Miami,
- 25:55Speaker 1: get that victory and show people, really, you might not
- 25:59Speaker 1: be talking about us right now, but you should.
- 26:01Speaker 2: Be absolutely Hey, dude, potential barn burner as well. Yeah,
- 26:06Speaker 2: both are working well. That could be a really high
- 26:09Speaker 2: scoring game.
- 26:09Speaker 1: Man, Okay, time for Douval dispatches. What's going on in
- 26:13Speaker 1: the world of the Jacksonville Jaguars. I mean, obviously we
- 26:16Speaker 1: need to mention the Wembley Stadium game Jags versus the Patriots.
- 26:20Speaker 1: Possible that we're gonna have a limited number of tickets
- 26:23Speaker 1: to release, So keep your eyes on social media. The
- 26:27Speaker 1: show starts next week. We spoke about this of course,
- 26:29Speaker 1: Key on sky Sports NFL. Who do You reckon? Is

- 27:10Speaker 1: few weeks in the world of Jacksonville Jaguars fans in
- 27:14Speaker 1: the UK and in Ireland as well. Keith, let's go
- 27:18Speaker 1: into revealing who won the amazing prize that we pitched for.
- 27:23Speaker 1: You know in the last episode what was it again?
- 27:25Speaker 2: It was a poster of all the rookies, signed by
- 27:29Speaker 2: all of the rookies, and we asked people to say
- 27:32Speaker 2: and fantastic, well thought up, brilliant catchphrase, put.
- 27:36Speaker 1: Me in the frame.
- 27:37Speaker 2: I won't explain why I came up with that.
- 27:39Speaker 1: Ye, move on, jadul Okay, do we have a winner?
- 27:45Speaker 2: Well, here's what I'm going to do on the YouTube channel.
- 27:49Speaker 2: There were two standout contributions. To my mind, I was thinking,
- 27:55Speaker 2: if I read both to you, you can make a
- 27:57Speaker 2: choice and see which one you like the most.
- 27:59Speaker 1: Are you ready? Yeah, let's do it.
- 28:02Speaker 2: This one is from Lizzie QQ and she says, you
- 28:05Speaker 2: may have thought the prompt was lame, but you asked
- 28:09Speaker 2: to be in the frame. You give us UK fans
- 28:12Speaker 2: the most j and Key, my favorite podcast hosts.
- 28:16Speaker 1: Ah well, that was that really increased my ego. I'm
- 28:20Speaker 1: not going to lie to you there. Really you feel good?
- 28:23Speaker 3: Right?
- 28:23Speaker 1: You feel good?
- 28:24Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 28:24Speaker 1: I feel good? What's it? What's the next one? Okay?
- 28:26Speaker 2: The next one is from Sam Gator eighty three two
- 28:31Speaker 2: zero and they say Key's the name. He's ahead of
- 28:35Speaker 2: the game alongside j they're both in the frame hosting
- 28:39Speaker 2: teal talk. You know they can walk the walk and
- 28:42Speaker 2: when Jags win another playoff game, you'll see them in
- 28:45Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame.
- 28:47Speaker 1: Is so good? You guys said to me, can you?
- 28:50Speaker 1: I was like, no, no, I can't a winner.
- 28:53Speaker 2: Oh shall I go with what my instinct is?
- 28:57Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 28:58Speaker 2: Yeah, let's go with you and I'll give a read. Yeah,
- 29:01Speaker 2: I would go with Lizzie QQ. Okay, the reason being
- 29:05Speaker 2: last month Lizzie QQ also gave a really good answer
- 29:08Speaker 2: and didn't get picked. So I think two episodes in
- 29:11Speaker 2: a row, they've given a really good answer and so
- 29:14Speaker 2: I think a worthy winners That's where I would go.
- 29:17Speaker 1: Congratulations to Lizzie QQ. I am so pleased I did
- 29:21Speaker 1: not have to pick the winner. Both great answers. I'm
- 29:23Speaker 1: going to be honest with you, So Lizzi QQ will
- 29:26Speaker 1: be in touch via the YouTube's to figure out how
- 29:29Speaker 1: you can get your prize, and there will be more
- 29:32Speaker 1: prizes coming throughout the season. All right, it's time for
- 29:35Speaker 1: the big question on TiAl talk. This is where we
- 29:38Speaker 1: get a Jacksonville Jankuers fan in and they give us, well,
- 29:41Speaker 1: the big question, Britt Jag aka Lee or Lee aka
- 29:46Speaker 1: Britt Jag? What is the big question?
- 29:50Speaker 5: The big question from me is which player on our
- 29:53Speaker 5: current roster is most likely to make it the Hall
- 29:55Speaker 5: of Fame.
- 29:56Speaker 1: Tough question, tough question.
- 29:58Speaker 2: Really tough Leck. Have you unprepared with an answer?
- 30:01Speaker 5: I think I've got a I think I've got one
- 30:03Speaker 5: or two?
- 30:03Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, one or two? Okay, so you've got a couple.
- 30:06Speaker 1: I think that the really tough question. The tough thing
- 30:08Speaker 1: about this is that obviously it is not easy to
- 30:11Speaker 1: get into the Hall of Fame. So really, Fred Taylor's
- 30:14Speaker 1: not even in the Hall of Fame yet, so it's
- 30:17Speaker 1: going to be difficult for whatever whoever on the Jacksonville
- 30:20Speaker 1: Jaguars roster right now to get into the Hall of Fame.
- 30:22Speaker 1: So we need to look at the player that has
- 30:24Speaker 1: done the most so far and probably that we have
- 30:28Speaker 1: confidence will be able to you know, sustain that ability
- 30:32Speaker 1: or even get better throughout the next half of many seasons.
- 30:35Speaker 1: That said, I'm gonna make key go go first so
- 30:37Speaker 1: I can think about it while you.
- 30:39Speaker 2: That was a really good long ramble that gave me
- 30:41Speaker 2: time to think.
- 30:42Speaker 1: But I tried to do it for myself as well.
- 30:45Speaker 2: I've got three potentials, right, I've got one potential, so
- 30:50Speaker 2: let's hope that you're not going to give me do mine,
- 30:52Speaker 2: So go on, let's go. I think a really obvious
- 30:55Speaker 2: go to would be Josh heinz Allen because I think
- 31:00Speaker 2: if he continues to perform the way he has, those
- 31:03Speaker 2: numbers are going to get better and better and better
- 31:06Speaker 2: because the guy works really hard and performs really well.
- 31:10Speaker 2: That one, I think is an obvious go to someone
- 31:13Speaker 2: that flies under the radar a little bit more. But also,
- 31:17Speaker 2: like the numbers are ridiculous, the work ethic is ridiculous.
- 31:22Speaker 2: Is Foyer Lucan? I love love what Foyer does. I
- 31:27Speaker 2: think if he continues to do what he's doing and
- 31:30Speaker 2: get better and better and better, I think great potential.
- 31:32Speaker 2: And then the third one I want to throw out
- 31:34Speaker 2: there just because when I was at training camp this year,
- 31:39Speaker 2: I could not believe what they were doing, but we
- 31:43Speaker 2: don't know what they're going to be capable of. Is
- 31:46Speaker 2: Brian Thomas Jr. But that guy, that guy honestly looks special.
- 31:53Speaker 2: He moves different. If he can learn his routes and
- 32:00Speaker 2: bring the options that I think he can bring, that
- 32:03Speaker 2: guy could be something very very special moving forwards.
- 32:06Speaker 1: I mean, I want the headline off of this episode
- 32:09Speaker 1: to be he ram suren says man who has never
- 32:12Speaker 1: taken a snap in the NFL will join the Hall
- 32:16Speaker 1: of Fame. I mean that is that is a good
- 32:18Speaker 1: That's a big shout, isn't It's a big shouting.
- 32:20Speaker 3: You know.
- 32:20Speaker 1: I spoke earlier in this episode about how I have
- 32:22Speaker 1: a lot of confidence in him and he's probably, you know,
- 32:24Speaker 1: one of, if not the most exciting player that I'm
- 32:27Speaker 1: most excited to see in the NFL this season. But
- 32:30Speaker 1: that is a big shout.
- 32:31Speaker 3: Key.
- 32:32Speaker 2: I just think, now go bold or don't turn up.
- 32:35Speaker 1: Okay, I'm going to give mine and I think this
- 32:37Speaker 1: is a real Trevor Lawrence is a good is a
- 32:40Speaker 1: good shout? I think I want I want to point
- 32:42Speaker 1: out Trevor Lawrence and say that, you know, what are
- 32:45Speaker 1: they going to do in the next few seasons, and
- 32:47Speaker 1: if Trevor Lawrence does what we all know he's capable of,
- 32:49Speaker 1: then he is definitely in with a shout. He had
- 32:51Speaker 1: a difficult start to his career with the New York Giants,
- 32:55Speaker 1: but he has done very well with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
- 32:58Speaker 1: Evan Ingram if he can just put together another three
- 33:02Speaker 1: four seasons or maybe too much, I don't know if
- 33:05Speaker 1: that's going to be. If that's too many, he has
- 33:07Speaker 1: been fantastic for the Jacksonville Jankers over the last two seasons.
- 33:12Speaker 1: We know that he is capable of it, and he
- 33:15Speaker 1: is capable of being one of the best tight ends
- 33:18Speaker 1: in the NFL.
- 33:19Speaker 2: Well, what's the current statue. It's something like he's one
- 33:22Speaker 2: of only eight tight ends to recall one hundred plus passes, right.
- 33:26Speaker 1: One hundred. Shout out George by the way for being
- 33:28Speaker 1: our research for this. One hundred and eighty seven catches
- 33:30Speaker 1: over two seasons, second amount in the tight ends only
- 33:35Speaker 1: behind Travis Kelsey, which isn't a surprise. It's a lot
- 33:37Speaker 1: of catches. He set this single season franchise record for
- 33:40Speaker 1: catches one hundred and fourteen one hundred and eighty seven
- 33:43Speaker 1: catches over the last two. Where's the yardage. I'll find
- 33:45Speaker 1: the yardage in a second. Here's somebody that has just
- 33:48Speaker 1: shown over the last two seasons that he can be
- 33:52Speaker 1: a legitimate, you know, receiving well exceptional receiving option. Really
- 33:57Speaker 1: for the Jacksonville Janquars, it's just about what happens over
- 34:00Speaker 1: the next couple of years. Britt Jag a ka Lee
- 34:02Speaker 1: Slash Lee aka Brit Jag who you're saying?
- 34:06Speaker 5: The two I said about have been mentioned, really.
- 34:08Speaker 1: And I blame Key for that. We said one. He's like,
- 34:12Speaker 1: let me tell you, let me get let me tell you. Okay,
- 34:18Speaker 1: I'll change my answer.
- 34:19Speaker 2: I'll ross matter.
- 34:22Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, let's let let's let's go Lee. What do
- 34:25Speaker 1: you reckon for me?
- 34:25Speaker 5: I think it is Josh heinz Allen purely because obviously
- 34:29Speaker 5: he's to get into the Hall of Fame. Ideally, you
- 34:31Speaker 5: need to be in a position that's going to rack
- 34:33Speaker 5: up a lot of stats because that's what that's what
- 34:35Speaker 5: gets you in at the end of the day. As
- 34:37Speaker 5: we saw, Bacelli really struggled getting in with because of
- 34:41Speaker 5: because of lack of statistics. And as I said, he's
- 34:45Speaker 5: got a great attitude, great worth work, ethic. He's already
- 34:49Speaker 5: had a really good start to his Jaguar's career and
- 34:52Speaker 5: he's approaching our all time leader. Hopefully he gets it
- 34:56Speaker 5: this year. I think he will, and I think he'll
- 34:58Speaker 5: he'll continue to to build on that and and our
- 35:01Speaker 5: whole with the help of Trayvon Walker. I think it
- 35:04Speaker 5: will be.
- 35:05Speaker 2: Getting better every season as well. What a support that
- 35:08Speaker 2: guy is for for josh Heinz Allen as well.
- 35:11Speaker 5: Right, absolutely, and so he's not he's not going to
- 35:14Speaker 5: get the attention that he can't give him the attention
- 35:17Speaker 5: that he's had in previous years because they've got to
- 35:20Speaker 5: take it walking into account as well.
- 35:22Speaker 1: So how how key do you think it is Lee
- 35:25Speaker 1: that josh Min's Allen has secured that contract for the Jags.
- 35:30Speaker 5: I think it's big because it's felt like for a
- 35:33Speaker 5: good few years, any kind of home drafted talent that
- 35:37Speaker 5: comes through the kind of get to the end of
- 35:40Speaker 5: a rookie contract and they seem to kind of disappear
- 35:42Speaker 5: off and we're not retaining those players. And I think
- 35:45Speaker 5: it's huge for roster building and his personality as well.
- 35:49Speaker 5: He's come out and said he wants to stay in
- 35:52Speaker 5: Jacksonville and that's that's great to hear because sometimes the
- 35:57Speaker 5: reputation of Jacksonville from out side places isn't isn't always
- 36:01Speaker 5: the best. So it's it's great to have a player
- 36:03Speaker 5: that saying that, yes, I want to stay here, I
- 36:04Speaker 5: want to fight for this team, this is the roster
- 36:07Speaker 5: I want to play on. I think it's great, especially
- 36:11Speaker 5: for the fans to hear.
- 36:13Speaker 1: How did you? How did you become a Jacksonville Jaguars fan?
- 36:16Speaker 5: Then they so it was the twenty seventeen season. I
- 36:20Speaker 5: was kind of a complete neutral watching NFL, didn't really
- 36:24Speaker 5: have a team, and that was the season great Jags fan.
- 36:30Speaker 5: So I feel a bit guilty because it comes across
- 36:33Speaker 5: as a bit of a glory hunting situation, but I
- 36:36Speaker 5: feel like I've paid the due since then, so it's fine.
- 36:41Speaker 5: But yeah, I just kind of watching the NFL as
- 36:42Speaker 5: a whole kind of I just found myself really rooting
- 36:44Speaker 5: for the Jags, and then the fact, obviously they've got
- 36:46Speaker 5: the relationship with the UK that was a huge bonus
- 36:50Speaker 5: alongside that, so.
- 36:51Speaker 2: Kind of Ravens game in twenty seventeen.
- 36:54Speaker 5: I didn't I didn't get up to any of the
- 36:56Speaker 5: games that year, but post that I started to go
- 36:59Speaker 5: from the Eagles the year after.
- 37:02Speaker 2: That's that that That game against the Ravens is still
- 37:05Speaker 2: one of my looking back, is still one of my
- 37:07Speaker 2: favorite Jags games that I've been to. It was phenomenal
- 37:11Speaker 2: like that, the atmosphere was unbelievable. They played about as
- 37:15Speaker 2: good as they could have played. It was a power
- 37:17Speaker 2: right if I remember correctly, Yeah, it was something like
- 37:19Speaker 2: forty four to seven. Yeah, I remember crazy and no
- 37:23Speaker 2: one expected it was the other thing.
- 37:25Speaker 1: And I remember going to the game being like, yeah,
- 37:27Speaker 1: tough game, tough game for the Jags, and I walked away.
- 37:30Speaker 1: I was like, that wasn't as bad as it wasn't
- 37:31Speaker 1: as thought it was going to be, to be.
- 37:33Speaker 2: Honest, certainly after after twenty seventeen when they had that
- 37:36Speaker 2: fantastic run, what was it like twenty eighteen nineteen and
- 37:40Speaker 2: a Jags fan.
- 37:41Speaker 1: Were you like, was it a part of it? It
- 37:43Speaker 1: was like, should I just be a Patriots? What if? I? Yeah?
- 37:48Speaker 1: It was?
- 37:49Speaker 5: It was.
- 37:50Speaker 3: It was.
- 37:50Speaker 5: It was love at first light with the Jags really
- 37:52Speaker 5: once I once I got attached to them, and at
- 37:55Speaker 5: the time was a young and hungry roster. A lot
- 37:57Speaker 5: of big personalities on the team, so it was it
- 38:00Speaker 5: was quite were quite a likable team. So now I
- 38:03Speaker 5: just found myself following them and like I said, just
- 38:07Speaker 5: having to stick through it really until the last couple
- 38:10Speaker 5: of years.
- 38:11Speaker 1: And you and Grain, aren't you in the Jacksonville Jaguars
- 38:14Speaker 1: community here in the UK and Ireland? Aren't you? I mean,
- 38:16Speaker 1: you know, I call you Brit Jag. But there's a
- 38:18Speaker 1: reason why I'm calling you Brit Jag, isn't there.
- 38:20Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 38:20Speaker 5: So I've got a social media pages Brit Jag can
- 38:24Speaker 5: kind of cover the team as best I can. And
- 38:27Speaker 5: I also have a podcast with a couple of other
- 38:30Speaker 5: fellow UK based Jags fans, the Bloody Jags Podcast, myself
- 38:36Speaker 5: and Jamie Phillips and Robson. So that's starting up again
- 38:40Speaker 5: in the next Well this week we'll be recording our
- 38:42Speaker 5: first episode for the new season.
- 38:44Speaker 1: Oh look, we'll finish on a quick chat about Miami
- 38:49Speaker 1: Dolphins first game of the season this weekend, So tell
- 38:53Speaker 1: me how are you feeling about it and give me
- 38:56Speaker 1: a prediction as well.
- 38:57Speaker 5: Okay, so I think it is going to be a
- 38:59Speaker 5: tough game because I I think the Dolphins are a
- 39:01Speaker 5: good team. Obviously a lot of speed on their offense.
- 39:03Speaker 5: It's going to be a tough ask. But everything coming
- 39:07Speaker 5: out of the Jags camp feels positive. Going into this season.
- 39:09Speaker 5: Doesn't seem to be any kind of negative news. No,
- 39:12Speaker 5: no real injury concerns. So I'm going to go for
- 39:16Speaker 5: a Jags win and I'm going to go twenty four
- 39:24Speaker 5: to fourteen to fourteen?
- 39:27Speaker 4: Wow?
- 39:28Speaker 2: Do you think we hold Miami to fourteen?
- 39:31Speaker 5: I think I think this. I think that I think
- 39:33Speaker 5: the d line are really going to be up for it,
- 39:34Speaker 5: and I really think they're going to want to.
- 39:36Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 39:36Speaker 5: I think like going back to a few years ago
- 39:37Speaker 5: at twenty seventeen when they started against the Texans and
- 39:40Speaker 5: really came out and just made a statement, I just
- 39:43Speaker 5: I got feeling.
- 39:44Speaker 2: Cilly, like nine to ten sacks in that game, that game.
- 39:47Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, So.
- 39:48Speaker 5: I think I think I just feel like they really
- 39:50Speaker 5: really want to make a statement and show maybe we
- 39:52Speaker 5: get a Saxonville two point zero.
- 39:55Speaker 3: That.
- 39:56Speaker 1: Yeah. Lee, thank you so much for coming on to
- 39:59Speaker 1: your talk today, and just know that if the Jags
- 40:02Speaker 1: hold the Dolphins to fourteen points, the whole of next
- 40:06Speaker 1: week's episode is going to be talking about you and
- 40:09Speaker 1: how you and how you predicted it. And you know
- 40:12Speaker 1: what can you predict next? Lottery tickets and all that business,

- 40:33Speaker 1: Hopefully speak to you later on in the season, Mate.
- 40:35Speaker 5: Brilliant, Thanks very much having me.
- 40:37Speaker 1: Thankslly Lee. Predicting twenty four to fourteen, Key, twenty four
- 40:41Speaker 1: to fourteen. As I say, if it does end up
- 40:44Speaker 1: fourteen points for the Miami Dolphins, he's going to be
- 40:46Speaker 1: pretty smarmy. I think he's going to be feeling pretty
- 40:48Speaker 1: good about himself. Key, if the Dolphins only managed to
- 40:51Speaker 1: get fourteen points.
- 40:53Speaker 2: I love the use of Saxonville two point.
- 40:56Speaker 1: Yeah. I do like holding the Dolphins to fourteen. Yeah, yeah,
- 40:59Speaker 1: I like you.
- 41:00Speaker 2: I'm not sure I like Hope so well.
- 41:02Speaker 1: No, we're getting to the tail end of the episode now, Key,
- 41:04Speaker 1: and it is time for us to give our predictions
- 41:07Speaker 1: for the first game of the season, Week one, Jacksonville.
- 41:10Speaker 1: JANKI was say head to Miami Dolphins. Lee, Lee, who's
- 41:14Speaker 1: representing the fans. We're going to keep a tally of
- 41:16Speaker 1: this every single week to see who's doing the best.
- 41:18Speaker 1: So Lee's representing the fans. Twenty four to fourteen. He
- 41:21Speaker 1: says to the Jags, Key, your prediction, please.
- 41:26Speaker 2: I'm going to go forty one thirty eight to the Jags.
- 41:30Speaker 2: Good Cam Little?
- 41:33Speaker 1: What I was thinking? I was thinking, I bet I bet,
- 41:37Speaker 1: Key says Cam Little gets the game winner? Is that
- 41:39Speaker 1: what you're saying? Or gets to the game winner in overtime?
- 41:42Speaker 1: In overtime? Jay, I'm going specific. My neighbors are going
- 41:46Speaker 1: to be thinking, what is he shouting about? Who says
- 41:48Speaker 1: Cam Little? Chap He's going on about? That is crazy.
- 41:53Speaker 1: It's just what your predictions are going to be like
- 41:54Speaker 1: every week. It's like, yeah, over time, it's going to
- 41:56Speaker 1: be so specific every week. Well, mine isn't anywhere near
- 42:00Speaker 1: is exciting? Now? I feel like maybe I should go
- 42:02Speaker 1: first next time. Jacksonville Jaguars twenty eight, Miami Dolphins twenty four. Okay,
- 42:10Speaker 1: I think that it is going to be part of
- 42:13Speaker 1: me thinks first game of the season. No one's going
- 42:16Speaker 1: to be completely at their best for the first game
- 42:18Speaker 1: of the season, whether that's the Dolphins, whether that's the Jags.
- 42:21Speaker 1: It's just how it is, isn't It takes a couple
- 42:23Speaker 1: games almost to sort of bed yourself in sometimes. But
- 42:26Speaker 1: I feel like both teams do have an exciting offense,
- 42:29Speaker 1: and if they do manage to click, then it'll be
- 42:31Speaker 1: a big game.
- 42:32Speaker 2: And we're scoring touchdowns this Sunday.
- 42:36Speaker 1: Okay, I'll say, Jaggs, I don't care about the dolls. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 42:38Speaker 1: I'll say, in the red zone for us, Travis gets
- 42:41Speaker 1: a couple. I tell you what would be really nice.
- 42:45Speaker 1: I tell you what I would love to see. I
- 42:47Speaker 1: would love to see one second Jags down twenty four
- 42:51Speaker 1: to twenty one, one second left in the game, on
- 42:55Speaker 1: the one yard line, Trevor Lawrence reaches over to get
- 42:59Speaker 1: that touch down. You know, almost full circle moment after
- 43:03Speaker 1: the end of last season, showing exactly who he is,
- 43:08Speaker 1: how good a player he is. He can do this.
- 43:11Speaker 1: He is one of the best quarterbacks in the league.
- 43:13Speaker 1: Nice full circle moment considering the end of last season.
- 43:15Speaker 1: JAG's twenty eight Miami twenty four. As I say, we'll
- 43:18Speaker 1: keep it tally like.
- 43:21Speaker 2: A real strong feeling about this Josh Heinz Allen gets
- 43:26Speaker 2: his hands on a pass pass rush bas it, Devin
- 43:31Speaker 2: Lloyd catches it, interception and returns it for six. That's
- 43:36Speaker 2: what's going to happen.
- 43:37Speaker 1: What yard line are they on?
- 43:38Speaker 2: Key?
- 43:39Speaker 1: This is but you're going so specific? Twelve yard? Twelve yard?
- 43:44Speaker 1: Devin returns twelve yards? All right, Well, if that happens,
- 43:48Speaker 1: it will be a very different episode of Tell Talk
- 43:51Speaker 1: next week, to be honest with you, where I'll be
- 43:52Speaker 1: having a really will I be having a real philosophical chat?
- 43:55Speaker 1: I think.
- 43:57Speaker 3: If that.
- 44:00Speaker 1: Hello, Pat McAfee, all right, that's it. As I said before,
- 44:05Speaker 1: we are weekly now until Talk. We'll be here every
- 44:07Speaker 1: single week throughout the season talking all things Jacksonville Jaguars.
